[2021] EU4 dlc sub, disabling music packs

Hey there!
At the moment there's no easy way to disable specific DLC as the subscription service is built by Steam. It's something we've requested though and will hopefully be possible in the future. However you can do this with some manual work by following these instructions:



1. Find the file "dlc_load.json", usually located in "C:\Users\your_username\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV"

2. Right click it and select Edit (this can be done in any text editor)

3. To disable DLCs, add them to the "disabled_dlcs" list



For example if you want to disable Fredmans Midsummer Epistles and the Sabaton soundtrack, this is what your file should look like:

{
"disabled_dlcs":["dlc/dlc065_fredmans_midsummer_epistles/dlc065.dlc","dlc/dlc052_sabaton_soundtrack/dlc052.dlc"],
"enabled_mods":["mod/ugc_1792575623.mod"]
}

 

ibicdlcod said: This method don't work for now, the "dlc_load.json" does not even exist,

Are you sure about that? I have it, and if I delete it, it comes back.  

Now there are new instructions for this under the subscription model!


1. Find the file "dlc_load.json", usually located in "C:\Users\your_username\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV"

2. Right click it and select Edit (this can be done in any text editor)

3. To disable DLCs, add them to the "disabled_dlcs" list



Below is an example with the DLC Conquest of Paradise disabled, note the added prefix “subscription_dlc/”:

{
"enabled_mods":[],
"disabled_dlcs":["subscription_dlc/dlc/dlc010_conquest_of_paradise/dlc010.dlc"]
}  

If you go to that folder you'll see all the dlc folder names with that number in them.
